TranslationLet whoever can, serve faithfully, as he knows.because whoever does a service acquires merit. Therefore, if it should sometimes happen that whoever serves is not rewarded by the man he has served, who does not say to him "Have this"; but several times a day the man he has not served says to him "Here it is". he is given a gift without knowing who gave it to him.
